    Rating plate on the side of an appliance.

    A three phase kitchen appliance is rated at 7.5kw. Now is this in total over the three phases or per phase? If over 3 phases then I guess that's 2.5kw per phase or 10.8amps per phase. The more I think about it the more I think it's over three phases.
